Norpro brought the addition of yet another engine line, Kubota. The Kubota engine is currently being used in the PowerMax line with hopes to introduce it into the Navigator series. Other new products include Roth tanks, a line of stand-alone UL and CE approved diesel fuel tanks ranging in size from 110 - 275 gallons. Tanks can be linked together for even greater capacities. Patriot transfer switches are fully automatic transfer switches for 100 - 1200 amp services. Trailer units featuring single and tandem axels, 10-60 kW, offer versatility and make transporting large units simple. Late in the year Norpro received a patent for their cutting edge Aquashield™ water cooled manifold system that delivers better heat rejection resulting in a cooler running, more efficient unit. Also, sub-assembly was moved to a larger separate facility to help accommodate increased volume of products. The new building is also used to store trailers, enclosures, and houses our new CNC machine.
